    the truth about splenda...
    they say it's made from sugar but the result of the "research" they were doing is:
    what you're really eating when you consume it is an insecticide.

    At the 2:00 mark is the story about how splenda came about:

    Wow.. I'm surprised how much nutritional misinformation gets parroted along on these forums. Mercola is a quack and the majority of the stuff on his site is in no way supported by hard science.
    Next there'll be anti-vaccination and anti-fluoridation videos, sheesh.

    thank you! I use Truvia or Splenda about once a day in my coffee. Definitely makes me want to throw it out now.

    Stevia isn't artificial. It's just as natural as cane sugar. Don't toss it. :) It's just the crystallized solids of another plant. I loooove my Truvia. Plus, it doesn't register as a sugar in the body so it never turns to fat. :)
    that is awesome to know~! thanks!
